OOOH that was a retired WINKIE playing cop wanna be yet again? Car is only supposed to be driven by retired PD... Not Aux! That's how GCSD pads the cops retirements at 15 to 20 per hour as opposed to 10 per hr for reular security. Isd it still parked on 490 near 390 pretending to run radar, or in local womens driveways for bootie calls? Let's start a where's GCSD car today blog...and evferyone can pinpoint it with photos, time, and location.

The only joke is contained in the original comment. A total fabrication of the truth. I would challenge this person to tell us about the district policy that states that only a retired cop can drive that car? While it is true, unless he retired, Dave Staub, a retired deputy sheriff drove that car exclusively since they bought a used vehicle for roving security purposes several years ago.,This guy worked in security for more tha ten years as a way of supplementing his income, Where did you get the idea that retired cops can't work security for that purpose. The job pays about ten bucks to start, with yearly increases commenserate with length of service. Would it surprise you to know that the district has hired retired Kodak workers in this capacity. So please tell me, what is the difference between the two , Kodakers and cops, for these available position. I'd really like to see your take on this, please!

Scats these are budgeted positions. What difference does it make who the district hires for these low paying jobs,As for cops padding their retirement income by taking these positions, what on earth is wrong with that. They are restricted as to what their maximum yearly additional income is and if they exceed that amount, their yearly pension is reduced by the excess amount over the maximum allowable under the retirement law, I fail to see how t he taxpayers " get reamed" as you put it by filling these needed , budgeted positions with capable individuals . No joke here!!

To 5:03 from 8:44Documented, videoed by PD and neighbors, reported to District - no action taken!To 1:24 from 8:44Refer NY exposed to E. Kaak - and now follow, video, document who is in the car for proof! Like I asked - Where's Dildo?Currently retired PD only, with the exception of a winkie and one close friend of a senior who appears to being groomed - near future hire? I'll post location when it happens!To 2:40 The difference is that the job pays low wages to anyone not a prior employee of law enforcement while offering a 3 to 5 dollar bump because of law enforcement prior employment - even turn keys for the jails qualify without taking the civil service exam according to MCSC website! This all adds up to fewer people for more cost and isn't security about presence... If so then it's an economies of scale issue! Prior law enforcement persons have to curtail their hours on the job for security as they approach the money limit allowed - that puts the schools, students, and staff at risk. Then it becomes a comp time fiasco that the district can't budget for!I think NY exposed would love an interview and overview report.

Based on the feedback here, I think I hit a nerve with some PD retirees who are screwing the tax payers! Perhaps even a once Top Cop somewhere ?

Scats it would seem to me that you have a problem with any retired public employee working full or part time jobs, especially Greece Cops and teachers. But as 1:24 noted, apparently it's OK with you if Kodak or other private sector retirees with pensions do likewise. I wonder why that is? Sounds like a personal bias to me. So sad!!!

What's wrong with hiring retired cops as security. Seems to me they are better equipped to deal with the students than some of the senior citizens they have hired on the past. What is the difference who is driving the car, as long as they are a employee. I do not believe there is dome hidden rule that only a retired cop can drive the vehicle.

6:22 allow me to repeat what I said earlier. You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Big timeAll security guard s are covered under AGCEPT contract. As such the pay scale is fixed and uniform with no exceptions for former retired cops.pAlso I doubt that you even know what the maximum allowable amount that the NYS Police and Fire Pension system allows. Digest this one if you will. After attaining the required age limit his or her earnings are no longer limited and are unlimited. In either case it's none if your business as it has no bearing on pension costs attached to his yearly allowance and you as a supporter if his pension.In the case of Knaack, you might be interested in knowing initially he was granted a waiver from the System which was later revoked thus causing his reduction in hours. At the time, he was making 80K. In my opinion given the job he did or better said didn't do ,was grossly over paid . On that we might agreeI have no idea what Chatterton is making but what ever it is he i s definitely limited by law. As was stated earlier, any amount over the limit is deducted from his yearly pension.I will go you one better. It is my opinion we do not need the title of Director of Security. All the district need do is designate an existing employee as officer in charge, pay him a modest stipends and everybody is happy and the job still gets done.

Some of the security policies do need to be looked at. For one - the use of COMP time. True they have caps in the amount of money they can earn. But these hours are not legally documented as per the NYS Labor Board requires them to be. Is this a BOE policy? Nothing is ever turned in to Payroll to keep track of these hours. Can any one say fail that audit? When COMP time is used, does a sub get called in or is the building down a security guard?

As for the Security car - didn't the board get rid of this a few years ago? Who/how did this get reinstated? Do they really use it to deliver Superintendent Hearing letters. Doesn't Greece use the US Mail? Is there really another car slated in the budget this year?

All of the security policies need to be looked at!I think transpo is looking to purchase the new car per budget newsletter and not security.Security budget is overrun per my sources; senior wages and retired PD wages too high - hired above contract step, too many guards working Athena events, no subs left - all have quit or will be quitting, problems with civil service, and much more!Security car is solely for single problem student transport, delivery of work from school to Bridges, hearing letters, and as with all PD, the donuts. There is now a staff of 2 high paid guards running this car from 7 til 4.
